Was there actually shooting last night in the Van Heutszpark in Coevorden or not? That is what the police are still investigating today. Last night, from the Dr. Picardtlaan received a report that shots had been heard in the nearby park.
That was around 3:30 am. “Agents who went to investigate in the park found those involved who stated that a firework pistol had been fired. But they did not want to press charges,” says police spokesman Matthijs van Houten.
An investigation was carried out in the park during the night, but no further traces of a shooting were found. According to those present in the park, there would have been a conflict prior to the shots, but further details remain unclear. The investigation into the case continues. For this, the police are looking for witnesses who have seen or heard more.
